The H600 is our reference integrated amplifier. With 303 watts into 8 ohms, a damping factor of 4000, and the ability to drive the amplifier down to 2 ohms, this powerhouse can drive any loudspeaker with authority and ease. The amplifier is a dual-mono design that comes as close as possible to the performance of two mono amplifiers in a single chassis. It also features a state-of-the-art preamplifier with the same extremely precise volume control found in our P30A reference preamplifier.

The entire electronic circuit was developed in-house using the highest quality components. This gives us unprecedented control over the entire amplification process. When combined with our SoundEngine2—a patented error-cancellation system based on an electronic circuit—the result is an audio signal that comes as close to the original recording as possible.

The D/A converter with a 24-bit/384 kHz input in the H600 features a bit-perfect design that offers pure audio reproduction without resampling or upsampling. The DAC has a large, separate power supply that ensures a clean and stable current, and it is shielded by a thick steel plate to prevent interference from other electrical components within the amplifier. The result is a state-of-the-art D/A converter with incredible resolution and smoothness.

The chassis is crafted from aluminum to enhance audio performance. It consists of a solid base and a top cover with dual-layer milled vents for added rigidity and airflow. Large aluminum feet with a scratch-resistant design ensure excellent stability and reduced vibrations, while high-quality RCA connectors and optimized positioning of analog and digital inputs provide less noise and better channel separation. The large control knobs are equipped with touch control, making the amplifier effortless and intuitive to operate. They also offer a tactile feel that makes every adjustment a pleasure.

At Hegel, we believe that great sound should not come at the expense of ease of use. That is why the H600 features a comprehensive list of streaming options. It supports UPnP streaming, Spotify Connect, Airplay 2, Tidal Connect, and Roon Ready integration. However, that is only the beginning. The state-of-the-art streaming engine ensures that the amplifier is always up to date, providing you with the latest options for streaming your music.
